Syncing my iPAD and laptop

I presently have a Blackberry, IPAD and laptop.
I have signed up to mobile me in an effort to synchronise my diaries, contacts, etc but am unaware if the Blackberry is causing the problem. Can I get just the laptop and IPAD to sync using mobile me and if so, how?
Thanks

Hi and welcome.....
MobileMe does not support Blackberry. If you are using Bluetooth on your Blackberry, turn that off if it's in range of your iPad.
In order to sync your MobileMe account with your iPad, you need to sync first with your computer.
Connect your iPad to your PC. Launch iTunes. Make sure iTunes recognizes the iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Select the Info tab from the menu. Select the Address Book Contacts / Calendars / Mail Accounts. Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.
If you have problems after the sync is completed, click here.

I have a new laptop that I want to transfer my Itunes account to so I can sync my ipad and laptop. I do not want to lose the info on the ipad

I lost my old laptop I used to sync my ipad with. I also have a new email address. I have a new laptop and new email address, and want to use it to sync my ipad. I have been trying to sync both items without losing the info on my Ipad. How can I do this?

No. You're allowed up to 5 or somehting, but if you don't deauthorize the old one, when you log into the store and look up your prefs you'll see it say 2 authorized computers.
And you're welcome.

Have you looked at this articel:
iPhone, iPad and iPod touch: Syncing photos via iTunes
One method of syncing photos is too use the folder method. You place the photos you want to sync in that folder and you identify that folder in iTunes as your syncing folder. If you change the folder the next time you sync the photos on your iPod from the first folder will be deleted and replaced with those in the second folder. The photo sync folder can have one level of subfolders. Each subfolder will appear as an album on your iPod.

My ipad and laptop were stolen, how can I get my data back?

Both my ipad and laptop were stolen. Ive downloaded itunes onto a new laptop but none of my files are there. I was using iCloud.Can anyone help?

You're music can be downlooaded (if it was purchased using iTunes) have you signed into your account in iTunes on the new laptop?
If the music was not purchased from iTunes and you are using iTunes Match you can also download it. If you are not using iTunes Match music that was not purchased from iTunes is gone.

When I try to sync my iPad and iPhone it will get within the last 3 pictures then stop giving me an APPCRASH error message. Then iTunes will shut down. No matter what I do to increase or decrease the number of pictures it always stops 3rd from the last.

Thank you iTunes for fixing the problem of downloading my pictures to my iPad and iPhone with the update 10.5.0.142

How can I get back to syncing my Ipad, and Iphone 4 the old fashion way

I have installed upgraded itunes, upgraded my Iphone operation system to 5.1, and installed Icloud. This is where the problems all began.
Icloud and I have everything (contacts, calendar events, photos) so messed up, it would take a Apple Surgeon to fix it all. Is there a way to start over and go back to syncing my ipad, and iphone with itunes....it was sooooo easy and all units were the same.
If I connect today, USB to computer and itunes, it will sync however add duplicates everywhere? I just wanna go home ! Removing Icloud from all three devices, Computer, Ipad 2, and Iphone 4

Pictures are not stored in iTunes.
Any pictures taken with the device, like with any other digital camera, are designd to be copied off the device to the computer on a regular basis. Via iTunes, pictures that the user chooses to have on the device can be synced back.
As Ralph stated, updating iTunes will not affect the media in the library. That being said, it has always been very basic to maintain a backup of important files. If you do not currently have a backup of your important files, I would strongly encourage you to make one.

Pages won't sync between iPad and Macbook

I cannot get my pages to sync between iPad and Macbook.
I regularly go back and forth between the two because it's easier to read/edit on iPad and easier to type/copy-paste web info on Macbook.
I'm finding right now that I have done a multitude of edits on my iPad that are not showing up at all when I open the same document on my Macbook.
I have closed the document on my iPad so I expected there to be no problems when I opened it on my Macbook.
Not sure why or what to do....?

I had this issue too - I have been playing around with it for a few days - turns out you need to save the documents on your mac not under "documents" but rather under "Pages - iCloud" (or "Keynote - iCloud" etc.). After doing this, the document appears on my phone, iPad, iCloud.com etc. with the changes.
One way to do this is by clicking the dropdown arrow (it shows up when you mouse over the title) to the right of the title of your document on the grey title bar (the thing at the top of the page - above insert, table, chart etc.) and then editing the "where" column.
Hope this helps! If it isn't clear enough, please let me know!

Hi, I have apple account/password on laptop but can't use the same ID etc on new Ipad. On my account it says ID is only for 1 system. I really want only one ID for both Ipad and laptop. Thanks

It seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

Can i sync an ipad and iphone on the same computer

I've got an iPhone 3GS and am thinking of getting an iPad 2 as well. How does syncing the 2 devices on the same computer work? Also, can I share Apps that I have purchased across the 2 devices, or do you have to pay for them twice?

I am syncing my iPad and my iPod Touch using iTunes on the same computer.
It's even possible to connect both devices at the same time to iTunes.
Yes, apps are shared between devices, but only if those apps are actually able to run on both devices.
You therefore only need to buy a certain app once and use it on your two devices.
Your devices are in fact administratively attached to your Apple ID.

I recently bought a new computer and had all my files moved to it. Now when I sync my iPad and iPod I get a message stating that some (41) of my items can not be copied to my PC because it is not authorized even though it is authorized on my account.

I recently got a new PC and had all of my files moved to it. However, when I sync my iPad and IPod nano I get a message that states that 41 of my items can not be copied to the PC because it is not authorized on my account even though it is. I have tried de-authorizing it and re-authorizing it but they still will not copy. Any thoughts on how I can get them to copy?

"Note: If you no longer have access to a computer that is using one of your authorizations, you can deauthorize all of the computers associated with your account by following the steps at the bottom of About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization".
Authorize the new computer. Launch iTunes. Go to the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.
Sync your iPod.

my pc computer crashed so I bought a new one and autorized it. Downloaded itunes, synced my ipad and it only copied some of my sngs and no apps. How can I download my ipad to my new computer

You can re-download your apps and ibooks purchases via your purchase history in iTunes on your computer (assuming that it's version 10.3+), and if you are in the USA then you can also re-download music I think - more info here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
For music that you ripped from CDs or bought from a source other than iTunes then, assuming that you made/maintained one, you can copy them from your backup - and backups are relatively easy to maintain, so there is no reason not to have one (especially as content is occasionally removed from iTunes so isn't always available for re-download). Otherwise there may be third-party programs that can copy them off the iPad, but you can't do it via iTunes - this post from a year ago was about iPod/iPhone to computer utilities but some might work with the iPad : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11646661?messageID=11646661&#11646661 .
If you've got content in other apps that you want to copy back to your computer then you might be able to do via the file sharing section at the bottom of the iPad's apps tab in iTunes, or they might have wifi transfer capability.
